Thank you so much for your reviews, you are awesome.
Sorry about the misspelling words and the grammar, I'm trying the best I can.
Here is the next chapter. Enjoy! It's been ready for almost two weeks but due to an error in the system I was unable to post it. Hope you enjoy it.
"Bella? Is that you?"- I heard a familiar voice say and my heart stopped.

My heart was racing and I immediately let go of Edward who seemed as panicked as I was. I took a deep breath and turned around to face him.
"Edward is your mystery boyfriend? Are you insane? He is our teacher!"- Jacob said in anger and I wasn't able to say anything.-"It all makes sense now, the way he was acting when you were gone, the way he looked at you. How could I have been so blind? How can you be so stupid, Bella? You know what he is after."- He continued looking at Edward with disgust.
"You're wrong."- I finally said.-"We love each other."
"Does Renée know about this?"- He asked and I nodded.
"She approves?"- He said surprised.
"She knows that my intentions are pure."- Edward finally said.
"Pure? Is making her lying to her friends being pure? Or sneaking around and making out in the woods?"- He said.
"It's not the best, I know that. And I hate that Bella has to do things like that, but at the moment is necessary."- Edward said.
"Necessary? Does Charlie know about this?"- He asked looking at me.
"No, and you are not going to tell him."- I said coming closer to him so I could look in his eyes.
"Oh, yes I am. It's for your own good Bella."- He looked at Edward again.-"This is a crime; she is underage and your student."
"I know."- Edward said looking down in shame.-"But like I said before, my intensions are pure, I love her with all my heart and I can't live without her, even if that means going to jail."- Jacob looked shocked with Edward's words.
"Jacob, we know each other for so many years. You know me, you know I would never be in a situation like this if there weren't true feelings behind."- He just looked at me with sadness in his eyes.
"You're blind; he only wants to take advantage of you."- He said looking at Edward.
"You're wrong, he has been more respectful than what I wanted, we haven't…"-"What was I doing? I didn't have to justify myself to him.-"Look, Jacob. There is nothing you can do to keep me away from Edward, and if you want to run to Charlie and tell him, go ahead I won't stop you. But know that if you do that, I'll never speak to you again, and even if Edward goes to jail because of you, I will wait for him, even if that means waiting the rest of my life, because I have no life without him."- It felt great to say all this to him, and I felt it was time to leave, I took Edward's hand in mine and left not even looking at Jacob's face.
We were quiet for a long time, and my head was going in circles and then all my emotions and fears hit me like a train and my knees got weak and I felt on them and started to cry.
Edward knelt by my side and lifted me in his arms and carried me all the way, I held him close to me, I wondered how much longer I would have with him and when Charlie would came to take him away from me.
"What's wrong?"- Alice asked when we came inside the house."- Edward didn't stop.
"Later…"- Was all he said. He carried me up the stairs and into to our bedroom where he lay me on the bed.
He wiped the tears of my cheeks and held me tight against him.
"I can't lose you, Edward, I just can't."- I said in sobs.
"You'll never lose me, never…"- He said in my ear before taking my lips in passionate kiss. We lay there for a long time, holding each other and waiting for something bad to happen. He started to hum my song in my ear and my mind got lost in that soothing sound and I fell asleep.

Bella finally calmed down and fell asleep; I looked at her so peaceful and beautiful in my arms and thought about how much longer would I be able to have her like this? That thought was excruciating…I had to do something. I couldn't just let her go without a fight.
For the next few minutes I thought about what I could do and made a plan that could actually work. I moved slowly so I wouldn't wake her up, I got her cell phone from her pocket and kissed her forehead gently.
I went downstairs and ignored the questions of my family; I got the keys to my car and drove away. I looked for the number I wanted and dialed it.
"What do you want Bella?"- Jacob said.
"It's not Bella, I want to talk to you."
"Oh…what do you want?"
"Not on the phone, let's meet somewhere."- I suggested.
"Fine, do you know where La Push is?"
"Yes, I'll meet you there in ten minutes."- As I drove I tried to get my thought together, and prayed that this would work.
I parked the car and got out, and walked down the path to the beach where Jacob was waiting for me.
"What do you want?"- He asked I took a deep breath and gathered my ideas.
"You love her, don't you?"- I asked.
"Yes."- He said looking at me in a defiant way.
"I love her too, and I would never do anything to hurt her."- I said looking into his eyes hoping he would see how serious and honest I was.-"If walking away from her was the best thing, I would do it, even if it killed me."
"You would do that?"- He asked surprised.
"Yes, if that meant she would be safe and happy."- He looked at me studying my face.-"Do you love her enough to do that?"- I asked him.
"What?"
"Do you love her enough not to hurt her? Because that's what you'll do if you tell Charlie, by hurting me you'll be hurting her."
"You're just saying that so you won't go to jail."- He snapped at me.
"No, remember when Bella missed school?"- He nodded.-"There was a miss understanding between us and she didn't leave her bed for three days. How do you think she'll react if I go to jail? Is that how you'll show her your love?"- I said and he just looked at me.-"Look I understand what you're feeling, but hurting her is not the answer.
"Did she ask you to talk to me?"
"No, she has no idea I'm talking to you, and I think she wouldn't like that."- He smiled.
"You're probably right."- He knew her well.
"I have to get back, just think about what I told you and make the right decision."- I left without even looking back and drove back home.
When I got there Alice was waiting for me at the door.
"What is going on?"- She asked.-"First you come carrying Bella, then you storm out of here and then Bella comes down and asks for my car and leaves."
"Bella left?"
"Yes, she said, she had to fix something, took my keys and left. Are you two fighting again?"
"We never fought; it was a misunderstanding, ok?"- I said harshly and trying to think where Bella could have possibly gone.
"Are you going to tell me what happened?"- She asked.
"Jacob, Bella's friend found us kissing in the forest earlier and said he was going to tell Charlie, so I went to talk to him. Did she say anything about where she was going?"- I asked in despair.
"No, I'm sorry."- She said hugging me.-"By the look of things, there's nothing you can do but wait until she comes back."- I knew she was right, but I hated it.

I woke up and Edward was not by my side, and I knew what I had to do, I went downstairs and asked Alice for her keys.
Once I was inside the car, I started to think what I was going to say, my mind was going thousands of miles per hour. I parked in front of the police station and went inside to find my dad. If anyone was telling him about Edward, it would be me.
"Hey, Bells. Everything ok?"- Charlie asked looking a bit surprised.
"I need to talk to you about something important, can you go out for a few minutes."- I said ignoring my pounding heart. Charlie got a very serious face.
"Just give me a minute, and I'll meet you outside."
"Ok."- I walked outside and waited for him by the Porsche. He come out a little bit after, I asked him to get in the car and drove away, asking him direction to his house because I was too nervous to remember. I could feel his eyes on me, but he didn't say a word until we were inside.
"What's going on?"-He asked.-"Did someone hurt you?"
"No, it's nothing like that. Let's sit down."- I said walking into the small living room.
"Isabella, you're driving me nuts, just say something."- He said.
"Well, remembered when I told you about not having someone in my life?"- He nodded.-"I lied."- I said looking at my hands afraid of what I would see in his face.
"Why did you lie?"- He asked.
"It's kind of a complicated relationship."
"What do you mean complicated?"-I almost couldn't hear him due to my pounding heart.
"I'll tell you, but you'll have to promise something."
"Ok."
"Just remember you're my dad and not the chief of police, ok?"
"Are you in some kind of trouble?"- He asked.
"No, not really."- I looked at him and he had a concern look on his face.-"Do you promise?"
"Yes."- I let out a deep breath and gather my thoughts before I continued.
"You know how I've always been mature for my age?"-He nodded.-"Because of that the boys my age don't find me very appealing, just like I don't find them."- I looked at him to see if he was following my thought line.
"Bella, just say what you have to say, don't go around it."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."- I gather all my strength and continued.
"I'm in love with an older man."- I blurted out and Charlie tensed up.
"How older?"- He asked.
"He is twenty three."- Charlie's face just turned purple.
"Does your mom know?"
"Yes, and she likes him very much."- Charlie rolled his eyes in despair.
"How did you meet him?"
"Well that's the other complicated part."- Charlie got up.
"There's more?"- He asked in shock getting up and pacing around the room.
"Yeah…well…"- It was now or never.-"He is my English teacher."- I said and looked at him to see if he made the connection, his face turned white and then purple and then red and he started to hyperventilate and rested his hand on his gun. Not good!
"Wait, didn't you say Edward was your English teacher."
"Yes, I did."
"You're in love with Edward?"- He asked shouting.
"Yes, and he loves me too."- I said and he looked at me furious.
"Did he? Are you two…"
"No, he doesn't want to, not while he is my teacher, he is very respectful."
"Respectful? He is taking advantage of you; it's a crime you know?"
"Yes, I know."
"I should just arrest him."
"NO!"- I shouted.-"You promise to listen as a dad and not the police chief."
"Well, as a dad I can report him and have someone else arrest him."- He said in anger.
"Dad, look at me, because I'm only going to say this once."- I looked at me fuming.-"If you report him, he is not the only one who is going to suffer, I'm going to be dragged to court as well, but I'll never say anything against him. But I promise you this, you'll never see me again."- I said as serious as I could.
"You don't know what you're saying."- He said.
"I know I love him and that he loves me. I know I won't be able to live without him, I know that no matter what you do, I will never let him go. I'm going to be eighteen in a few months. You'll never see me again."- I shouted.-"Is that what you want? Think about it."
"Bella do you have any idea what you're asking me?"
"Yes, you just have to think about what is more important to you, you're daughter or your job."- I said walking out the door, getting into the car and driving away.
When I got to the Cullen house, Edward ran to meet me and put his arms around me.
"Where did you go? I was so worried about you."- He said kissing my hair.
"Where did you go?"- I asked him.
"Don't be mad, but I went to talk to Jacob."- I looked at him in surprise.-"I had to do something; I could just let you go without a fight."- He said and I smiled.
"That's good to hear, because we are in for a huge fight."
"What do you mean?"
"I told Charlie."
"You did what?"
"Well, I wasn't going to let Jacob be the one to tell him."- I said defensively.
"How did he react?"
"He turned purple at first and then he said he was going to report you, and I told him if he did that, I would never speak to him again, and I left. So I think it's better if we go back to Phoenix."
"Run away? No, Bella, what kind of a man would you father think I am if we just ran away. I will stay here and wait for his move. He knows where to find us."- He said kissing my forehead.
"Are you sure, because I rather you lived."
"He is not going to shoot me."
"I wouldn't be too sure about that."- He kissed my lips gently.
"I would die for you."- He said seriously and I believed him.
"Let's hope it will never come to that."
We went inside and I told the others what had happened with my father and we just sat in the living room and waiting.
"This is really boring."- Alice said getting up.-"Since we are here lets' work and watch some more videos.
And that's what we did, until there was a loud knock on the door and my heart stopped. We all just looked at each other and no one moved.
"I'll go."- Edward said getting up.
"No away, you just sit there, it's probably Charlie, so it best if I'm the one opening the door."- I got up, took a deep breath and opened the door.
"Hi, dad."- I greeted my dad, who was standing in the door way looking nervous and confused.
"I talk to you mother."
"And?"
"Is there anything I can say or do to change your mind?"
"No, I love him and I can't live without him."- Charlie rolled his eyes.
"I want to talk to him."
"I don't know if that is a good idea."- I said.
"It's ok, Bella, I would love to talk to him."- Edward said coming to stand next to me and Charlie narrowed his eyes and put his hand over his gun.
"Fine, but leave the gun with me."- I said and my dad looked surprise.
"What?"
"If you want to talk to him, you leave the gun here; I don't want to take any chances."- My dad rolled his eyes and handed me the gun and they both walked out the door.
I didn't have the strength to watch them, so I asked Alice to do it for me and she would tell me if things got ugly, but two minutes later I was standing next to her, because I was dying to know what they were talking about.
EPOV
I followed Charlie downstairs and he stopped in front of the garage.
"I called Bella's mom."- He said looking me in the eyes.-"She seems to like you a lot."- He said and I felt a little relieved.-"She told me about how Bella acted when you two were apart."- I nodded for him to acknowledge that I knew what he was referring to.-"So she said that the best thing for me to do was nothing."
"Mr. Swan, I love you daughter, and I would walk away if I knew that was the best thing for Bella, but it's not. It just happened… none of us plan this and I fought my feelings for as long as I could, but she just so amazing and…"
"If you hurt her, prison is the last thing you need to worry about."- Charlie said cutting me off.
"I understand, and believe me that's the last thing I want to do. I want you to know that I have the best intentions regarding Bella, I intend to make her my wife one day, I don't see myself with anybody else."
"She is very young to think about something like that."- He said fuming.
"I know that, and I'll wait for as long as I have to."
"She told me you have been respectful, is that true?"- He said looking deep in my eyes.
"Yes, I've tried my best not to cross that line."
"Could you wait until she turns eighteen?"-That was like more than five months way, I would never be able to wait that long, but what should I tell him. I decided to be honest.
"I'm not sure I'll be able to that, I'm sorry. But I'll wait until school is over, that I can promise you. I don't want to cause her any problems. I understand your worries, but I'm a good person, you can check that. "- He looked me in the eyes for a long time.
"I already did. I have to say I was very surprised with what I found out. I see myself in a difficult situation where I have to choose between my daughter and my job which is my life. My daughter comes before anything."- I almost let out a breath of relief.-"But this doesn't mean I approve of this craziness, but I can't lose my daughter. Please be careful."
"I understand. I'll do my best to make her happy."
"Good, I'll still be waiting for you tomorrow for that fishing trip, since she won't listen to reason and break up with you, we might as well get know each other better."- He said and I smiled.
"I would love that."
"Good."- Bella came running down the stairs and jump into Charlie's arms.
"Thank you dad, I love you. You are the greatest dad ever."- He patted her back obviously feeling uncomfortable with Bella's display of emotion.
"I love you too."- He said and walked upstairs to get his gun back. He kissed Bella's forehead gave me a menacing look and left.
"So?"- Bella asked me.
"So what?"
"How did the conversation go?"
"Weren't you listening by the door?"-I asked knowing that she had been.
"Yes, but I want to know what do you think."
"I think that I love you."- She rolled her eyes and smiled.
"Lucky for you, I love you too."- She said lifting herself and kissing me on the lips.
"Let's go home."- I said and it felt great.
We had an early dinner and we all relaxed around the table after an exhausting day and went to bed early cause the next day we would have a fishing trip with Charlie, my future father in law.
I hope you enjoyed it, I'll try to update as soon as possible. Thank you again for your reviews and patience waiting for this one, I have no idea what was wrong but I'm glad it's fixed. Don't forget to review.
